The Four Souls Demon

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha until I own the world! Mwahahaha!

Hey everyone me again. I can't believe I am updating so soon, okay I can believe it in, it's probably because it's getting to my favorite part in the story. In this chapter a lot happens, and I mean a lot happens…I'm sorry, I'm so giddy for some reason and I can't help it if I seem excited! The author is shutting up now and here is the next chapter of The Four Souls Demon!

Confrontations and Betrayal

Everyone waited patiently (except Inuyasha) for Kagome to return to their time. Truthfully, Inuyasha was getting annoyed a bit and kept tapping his foot impatiently and mumbling something about "stupid wenches" and "being late" which was getting both on the demon exterminator's and the monk's last nerve.

"Where the fuck is she?" yelled Inuyasha, glaring at the well menacingly.

That was their last nerve, and Inuyasha just broke both of them.

Inuyasha felt something hard hit him in the back of the head. "Ow!" he twirled around at the two. "Okay who threw that?" he barked.

They both smiled innocently, but when Inuyasha turned to stare at the well, they both broke into a fit of laughter. Inuyasha turned around and glared at both them and "Feh'd". He went closer to the well and peered in it, seeing no Kagome he sighed.

Sango and Miroku both saw this and they both decided to strike again but by using bigger rocks. They both found big rocks and tossed them at Inuyasha once again. Sango's hit Inuyasha behind the head but Miroku hit another squirrel.

"Oww!" yelled Inuyasha and turned around to glare out both of them again. "If you guys throw one more fuckin' rock, I swear I am going to hurt both of you!" he yelled but they both weren't paying much attention. Just then, a giant yellow bag popped out of the well and Inuyasha was standing where it was going to land.

Thud!

"Ouch!" Inuyasha was flattened by the big yellow bag and Miroku and Shippo broke into laughs.

As they were laughing and Inuyasha being suffocated from the huge yellow bag, Kagome crawled out of the well.

She looked down and saw Inuyasha under her bag. "Inuyasha are you alright?" she asked quickly lifting the bag off him.

He answered angrily. "Do I look okay to you? You practically flattened me to death, you stupid bitch!" he yelled. Kagome glared at him and dropped her bag on him again.

"Oops"

Was her reply and another huge groan was heard from the hanyou as the bag once again flattened him. He growled angrily at her and she turned around and sticked her tongue out at him.

"Annoying wench," he remarked angrily trying to get up.

Hearing his remark, Kagome said his least favorite words. "Sit boy" and Inuyasha collided with the ground for the second time. Inuyasha grumbled unhappily while Kagome walked off with Sango.

'I thought he would be over the fight between us but apparently not, the stubborn hanyou,' thought Kagome dryly as she listened to Sango about what had happened the past few days.

As Kagome walked away, Inuyasha crawled out from under the huge bag, and glared at Kagome solemnly. 'I thought she cooled off by now,' he thought and picked up the bag, and followed the two.

TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

It was late at night now, and neither Kagome nor Inuyasha had spoken to each other, in fear of angry each other more. All through the day they have been avoiding each other and it was well noticed to both Miroku and Sango. They didn't like how these two reacted and it bothered them as well, so while Kagome and Inuyasha ignored each other, Miroku and Sango were plotting.

After going through the detail of their plan for the last time, Sango spoke up. "Looks like the fire is going out," she said getting the two's attention. "Inuyasha, why don't you go get some more firewood?" asked Sango urging him with her hard stare. He replied with his usual "Feh'd" and started to go into the forest.

Miroku winked at Sango, and turned to Kagome. "Kagome, you better go with him incase he faints," he said giving Kagome his sheepish grin.

'Wait, what was going on here?' thought Kagome and she noticed Sango's uneasiness. Kagome smiled at her. 'Sango wants to be alone with him, I get it,' she thought but sadly got the idea totally wrong.

Kagome stood up and clapped her hands together happily. "Alright, we will leave you guys alone," she said and before Inuyasha could protest she dragged him into the forest.

Sighing, Sango laid back, not knowing the monk was right behind her, reaching his "cursed" hand right toward her backside.

TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

As Inuyasha and Kagome entered the woods, they heard a loud shriek and a slap coming from camp, but knew right away what had happened. Inuyasha sighed dully, 'When will that monk ever learn,' he thought and glanced back at Kagome. Of course to his utter surprise, she was staring at him. They both blushed and looked the other way, as Inuyasha gruntly asked, "What?" as he tried to hide his red face.

She replied, "Nothing," and they both became silent once again.

Inuyasha's ears started to twitch annoyingly, he didn't like it when it was this quite when he was with Kagome, it just didn't feel right. He decided to speak up and apologize, even though it might cost him is pride. Well, it's better than eating dirt.

Sighing, he stopped walking, and Kagome stared at him curiously. He knew she was staring and he didn't want her to look him in the face when he was going to apologize, it be too much for his heart. "Kagome," he started.

Her brown eyes stared at him out of curiosity. She answered. "Yes, Inuyasha?"

He sighed, might as well say it now. "I'm…sorry," he finished and started to walk away from Kagome who stood there shocked.

'He didn't…just apologize, did he?' thought Kagome. She smiled brightly and ran up to Inuyasha. She stared at him intensely. "I'm sorry too Inuyasha," she said gently, and saw that Inuyasha's ears twitched from the response of her voice.

Even though Inuyasha didn't say anything anymore, she knew she was forgiven. She sighed silently, and followed Inuyasha happily through the woods, glad they were no longer fighting and things might return to normal for them.

TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

Back at camp, Miroku was rubbing his red cheek and Sango was glaring at him angrily as she tended to Shippo and Kirara. Not really paying attention to the fight Sango and Miroku just had, Shippo continued to play with Kirara though she really didn't seem interested in playing. Kirara seemed a little on edgy.

After his fifth time of trying to play with Kirara, Shippo gave up. He collapsed on the ground. "Man, this is so boring without Ookami around," he stated bluntly.

Miroku and Sango looked at Shippo, then around the camp for Ookami. Shippo was right, Ookami was no where in sight, though footprints of Ookami led to the forest, exactly where Inuyasha and Kagome went.

TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

The full moon lit up the clearing making everything easily seen. A lake shined in the middle of the grassy clearing, making it look like something from a mere fairytale. The grass swayed back and forth from the gentle winds, and it caressed over the lake, making it a calming presence. Not awhile ago though, Inuyasha and Kagome had stumbled upon this fantasy place.

They both were lying down on the grass, looking up at the sky, forgetting their duties. It was quite between them but they were both very happy. A thought came to Inuyasha, about what he was going to tell Kagome…about Ookami…

He decided to speak. "Kagome, there is something about Ookami you should know," he started.

Kagome looked at him curiously. "What?" she asked sincerely, wondering what could be wrong.

Scratching his head, he might as well just tell her what he thought. "I don't think Ookami is a dog, I think she's a demon," he stated looking at Kagome. Wincing when Kagome started to laugh but he growled out of frustration. "Kagome, I'm serious. She has no scent, she can see jewel shards, and I think…I think she can transform into a giant dog demon…" he finished and stared at Kagome intensely.

She stopped laughing and saw how serious Inuyasha was. "How do you know this?" she asked, trying to figure out if this was another scheme to get rid of Ookami.

He sighed and answered dryly. "Mostly I saw and smelt for myself, but Kirara talked to her, and she doesn't think she is a dog either" He looked away, afraid she may not believe anything he just said.

Wait…Kirara told him? She knew Kirara was smart but how is he so sure? A thought came to Kagome, something she forgot to tell Inuyasha when they first found Ookami. She was used to it now, so it had escaped her memory. She rubbed her head out of disbelief, Ookami probably was a demon.

Sighing, she spoke to Inuyasha finally. "Inuyasha," his ears twitched towards her, "I think your right. I forgot to tell you when we first met Ookami…she glows like the Shikon-No-Tama," she finished and Inuyasha looked at her with wide eyes.

He stared at her in disbelief. "So you believe me?" he asked softly.

Kagome nodded, and they both became silent. Inuyasha broke the silence between them once again. "Were going to force information out her, you know that right?" he said and he stood up.

With sadden eyes, Kagome spoke. "Yeah, I know," she sighed sadly and stood up along with Inuyasha. She spoke sadly to Inuyasha. "Lets not do anything until morning, 'kay?" and Inuyasha nodded in reply.

They both stood there, looking at the lake. They didn't want to do this to Ookami but it was the only way…the only way to find out what Ookami really is. Inuyasha and Kagome started to head back to camp, but unknown to them, someone had heard their whole conversation.

In the forest, golden eyes stared at them out of fury. The creature bared its fangs angrily at the two. As they disappeared into the forest, they creature stepped out of its hiding place. The moonlight showed Ookami, the wind blowing her fur. She bared her fangs angrily at the two, and her eyes were filled with hate.

She howled angrily. "So their going to be betray me, eh? Damn, that Inuyasha telling her about everything, but I will show them," and Ookami stalked angrily after the two, as if they were prey when hunting.

TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

As everyone slept, Ookami crept out of Shippo's arms. Stealthily, she made her way over to Kagome making sure not to awaken the hanyou as moved. She went past the slayer and monk easily for they slept like logs, she smiled. She stepped on twig, and she stopped moving, afraid she had awakened the half-breed or the fire cat.

All that could be heard in the night was the sound of deep breathing from everyone and the sounds of the forest. She smiled cockily. She crept towards Kagome, fangs bared at Kagome's naked neck. Someone shifted in their sleep and Ookami paused, hoping the darkness of the forest would hide her.

Not another movement was made. She smiled happily, and swiftly bit the chain that held the Shikon-No-Tama, grasping it in her mouth. She quickly moved out of the way as Kagome rolled to her side.

Ookami glared at the people sleeping and slowly made her way out of camp. If seen from a far, it would look like an evil spirit was leaving because how her fur glistened in the night and the look of hate was so clearly seen on her face.

Before she lost sight of the group, she said this. "I finally have what was mine in the first place, so do not worry petty creatures, you will never see the likes of me again," she said and was about to leave before she added. "And you will never see the Shikon-No-Tame again either…" and she fled through the night, not knowing the fire cat's eyes were open the whole time.

TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

Kirara had been following Ookami for awhile now, flying overhead in her big cat form. Strange that Ookami hadn't spotted her head yet, she kept following her. Kirara looked up ahead and saw that Ookami was heading toward a clearing by a huge lake.

As they both got to the lake, Ookami had stopped and waited for Kirara to land.

As the fire cat landed, she growled angrily at Ookami. "How dare you betray us like that?" she roared angrily hoping that Ookami would flinch from fear.

She didn't, but returned a very hardened stare in return. "I did not betray you or the others, they were going to betray me in the morning, and I wouldn't allow it, so I took what was mine," she sneered and growled angrily back. Kirara shivered, Ookami's growl was very different than normal. It was nothing she had ever heard, like two voices were speaking at the same time out of fury.

Kirara glared at her. "Give the Shikon-No-Tama back Ookami, or I will fight you for it," challenged Kirara.

Ookami gave an eerie smile, and she bowed low to the ground but she never took her cold stare off Kirara. "So be it," she finished and Kirara charged at her. Ookami only smiled and a bright flash formed around her body as she charged at Kirara also, giving off a mad sneer. "But remember this Kirara, my name isn't Ookami…"
